my grow log

[atsar]

thanks again postmand and greenfog,it's always good to hear the experienced growers opinions,lets me know how i'm doing,and thanks to everyone else who commented too,it's always appreciated

greenfog,the plant i took the cutting from,i had to chop early because there was something going wrong,so i chopped her just before 7 weeks,so can't really use that as a guide,though weed was still amazing,
i am thinking about seeds,but i really need to look into things a bit more,see what's suitable for scrog,but as it goes,this that i have is a really good strain,its branchy,decent yeilds,very forgiving,puts up with ridiculous temps/humidity to mention but a few of its good points,so even if i do get seeds,i reckon i'll try and keep at least 1 clone per grow of this one

postman,i'll check that link right after i hit submit reply

here's tonights trichs,there's also something happening on some of the leaves,is it ok?i saw some little fly things hanging round earlier,its 1st pic

thanks

hey whats up atsar,
very good job so far id say its a indica/sativa mix a lil on the indica side looking at the leaves. props man, very successful. what lighting are you using? and are you using mylar/foil?

[atsar]

aheadatime i use a 400 watt dual spectrum hps,and line the wardrobe with aluminium foil tape

so tonight i chopped her down,i based this decision on a couple of things,firstly i was seeing loads of deformed amber trichs,see pic 1

secondly,i'm going on to 14 hour shifts at work for a few days,maybe a week,i wouldn't have seen her at all in this time so i wouldn't have been able to check trichs/water etc without interupting it's dark time

so based upon this i decided it was time to chop,spent 3 hours trimming her down a little and hanging the buds,no idea of the wet weight,no point really,will post weight when it's dry

anyway,some pics

hmm excuse me if this is a stupid question but ive seen tons of different items to buy when i look up grow lights. there are hps bulbs (without a system, just a bulb) reflectors, etc. what do i buy to get the setup? do i get a reflector and simply screw in the hps bulb? and damn atsar, all that from one hps bulb?

[aheadatime]

another question from the curious nub
you LSTed your plants i think. what did you use for the tying? fish line? im going to start my closet soon on a full spec 90 wat cool flour and a 400 wt hps with about 3 maybe 4 plants going at once. obviously im gonna need some LSTing done for space. thanks for the answers atsar, the yeild looks delicious =] tons of props bro

[atsar]

with hps you need a ballast,bulb and appropriate light fitting,reflector is very useful too,you can buy them as complete kits/units,for the lst i just used plain ordinary string

atsar. what agreat job on the plant.
the buds look killer.

[r00tdoctor]

Nice harvest and awsome lst job. Looks like you harvested at a good time juding by your tricomes ; it should be a good buzz nice combination of an "up" type stoned high and a lil body buzz.

[aheadatime]

btw, exactly how many plants did you have pre-harvest?

[atsar]

well,i had 4 plants,but now i only have 3 as i harvested one,the 3 will be ready at different times and are just small single top plants
